This summer we had a plan to arrange the first NJS Meeting here in Helsinki, but unfortunately times was not in our sides. Next summer I´ll try to make more effort. You have approx 7 months to built the most stunning NJS complete we´ve ever seen here in north. Here´s the poster of the NJS Bike Show held in USA. Thanks to TNTS for the link.

Wooden gudgeon (or plug) was put inside of the headtube to support the tube. It was believed that if the tube cracks, gudgeon would save the cyclists life. Mainly this was made because some of the races in France included stages with cobblestone roads. Pic taken from "Tidens Cykelbok - En handbok föt alla sorters cyklister". Thanks to 2Fresh.

It took over four weeks to arrive and I got only an empty envelope. There went a nice Sugino Mighty seatpost and I mint Sugino Gigas cog. Some f***** stole them along the way its trip from California to Finland. Seller made complain, but I guess I never going to get them or any compensation what so ever. Thanks USPS and you who stole the stuff!

Still searching for the best and most stylish way to hang my bikes on my hall wall. At the moment I have Xtreme Multiflex.

Hangs two track bikes without any problems, but it´s not the most stylish one. As you may seen there´s not much options but casually, something new pops out from the industrial design field. Like this from The Project Modern.
